Exactly. Only a tiny, narcissistic, racist and delusional portion of the audience actually go to movies to see “diversity” (i.e no white men).

One question for Ernest: how is a majority black cast diverse but a majority white cast isn't? Me thinks that's very racist. No one can have a real discussion with him- it's all race or s*x.

It's also extremely difficult to take an adult seriously who makes all those goofy faces when other people talk. Esther: they went beyond preaching to attacking their audience and targeting families and kids. I was a big Disney fan, I walked away and will not return to their products again.

Same with Marvel, they did great things adapting characters and plot lines, but now a lot of this new stuff is based on comic lines that failed miserably.

Everyone forgets that Blade was one of the first Marvel movies, and nobody cared that he was black.

First Black panther, Captain Marvel only did well because of Infinity War/Endgame, being so for the connective tissue in all movies.

Plus, Black Panther recycled the plot from Lion King, it wasn't a flop because it had decent writing, they stole their writing from an already popular source. Also, if you set your movie in Africa it makes sense to have a black cast because the majority of people in Africa are black. That isn't true of the western world.

Those making the decisions at these media companies have entirely forgotten the most basic fundamental of business, give customers what they want.

More like great to see Piers welcomed by of these two KZbin titans who have been covering this culture war since it started. Piers is merely playing catch up to Drinker and Gary/Nerdrotic

I am a white man. I watched the 1st Black Panther and loved it. I don't try to "identify" to the cast, this whole idea is by itself ridiculous. I want to watch good story-telling, good acting, if need be with action packed coherent scenarios (given the contexts and Lore narratives), for my ENTERTAINMENT, not for my "identification", stop treating people as if we were on a shrink's couch when watching a movie! Who do they think we are, their Pavlov dogs, or human beings (I don't identify as a dog for that matter)?

Thank you Sir Morgan for having critical and nerd on some more, best wishes from Scandinavia

If that guy Ernest was a bit brighter and a lot more honest he'd be embarrassed.

[@Roadvoice]

Thats why disney sent him. He is just cannon fodder.

[@MadHatter-ek7vh]

He's probably been smoking too many poles and drinking too much glue...you can hear it in his voice.

[@stephenkime5946]

He's a parrot. Nothing he says are his individual opinions. But the opinions programmed into him by of a woke society who wants people who're easy to control. His existence makes me worry about AI

“People want to go see diverse films…” Apparently, all of those ‘people’ are sneaking into the theaters and pirating streaming services given the consistent lack of profit for their products. Glad you cleared that up, goofball

[@michaelfranciotti3900]

People like to SAY they want to see diverse films.

[@BringBack2Center]

Dudes a plant turning out the brainwashed talking points. Dude is out if his league.

[@Nartanek]

They take every semi half popular movie that worked with a black actor as proof and every movie that crashed and burned is because of 'superhero fatigue' It's like a blind man telling you that what you see as someone with normal sight is wrong. Black panther worked because it released at the height of marvel, the movie was okay and the character himself is good and recognizable. Litteraly nothing to do with identity.

[@tomdolan9761]

No I think audiences are demonstrating en mass that they don’t want to see diverse films which is why these films are box office disasters

[@BringBack2Center]

@@tomdolan9761 It's about the writing not about the cast

[@mingramh]

Great team, great chat, thanks!!

Blackwashing real characters is an absolute audacity and should be legit pointed out as rewriting history. Depictions of Cleopatra, Atilla, Isaac Newton, Anne Boleyn and many more for better ESG score should not be allowed. I would love to see a reaction to Martin Luther King depicted as paraplegic non-binary Asian.

[@notiowegian]

Making biopics about famous people is always terrible, they are always lies, simplifications and even when done very well, like in Lincoln, they leave out very important layers, like the fact Lincoln was an awful racist, just less racist than most at the time. so all depictions are terrible. People need to just understand that their "heroes" are fake characters in the first place, and a person with any basic historical backgrounds finds movie depictions of any single human as disgusting. Therefore they should have no problem with any other inaccuracies placed on a famous person, because the movie is itself fake. That is why they should be fantasy, or at best metaphor for a fake representation we have been sold of a famous persons life.

[@codinghusky5196]

​@@notiowegian that's... childish. Look at this: "Lincoln was an awful racist, just less racist than most at the time". This is a reaction of a young child that just figured out what momma and dadda do when they say they're "wrestling" and thinks it's "icky". It's like "I had 5l of copium and I STILL can't deal with the fact people are HUMAN". While movies aren't meant to be taken as documentaries; they ARE meant to depict someone's life with a "best foot forward" mentality because this is HELPFUL to the society; this shows us what heroes are and teaches us - no, compels us - to possibly emulate this. Lincoln didn't have to abolish slavery, has that ever occurred to your childish mind? They could've done like the arabs did at the time; castrated the slaves to keep them docile and the population under control; and we could've had that society today. The ONLY reason we have a free society is because these "awfully racist" people decided slavery was wrong. Churchill, the awful rude narcissistic drunk, didn't HAVE to stand up to the 3rd Reich, he could've joined and we could've had the Third Reich now. Tesla, the introverted insaniac with debilitating OCD didn't HAVE to invent all of the awesome stuff that built our civilization, but he did. Einstein, the dude who married his own cousin, didn't HAVE to give us a revolution in physics, but he DID. You're not ENTITLED to heroes, you GOT them because they *wanted to make the world a better place*. Have you ever wondered what being a hero even means? It's not "being perfect, virtuous and godlike in every way", that what a little undeveloped baby would think. Being a hero means "going out of your way to do the right thing in spite the difficulties and your own flaws". Biopics are meant to inspire. And why is it necessary to be correct about the VERY PERSON? Because nations they belong to are inspired by that person and they DO NOT get to have that inspiration taken away. AMERICA abolished slavery first. AMERICA. Lincoln was a white American. You do not GET to depict him as a Japanese trans woman, because Japanese trans women don't GET to take that away from America. Just like Tesla was a Serbian man, and you do not GET TO take that away from Serbia by depicting him as a mongolian lesbian. Now, I understand it's very painful to hear this, especially if you're young. Today's young people can't suffer to be inspired, because they absolutely refuse to be exposed to any incentive to better themselves. They created a "fat acceptance" movement to not ever have to lose weight, they claim mental illness to not have to study, and percieving all the heroes as worthless scumm is a part of that. Because if Lincoln was an awful racist who did nothing worth any mention, and might as well be replaced by a Fillippino grandma, then you can feel great about doing nothing worth while yourself. We get it. We despise it, but we get it.

I never understood when people label, paraphrasing, "You're pretty" as misogynistic. How is that hateful? They're saying they like the person. That's not hate, that's appreciation.

[@AsheramK]

A comic page have been making its way around the internet for a year or so about if women complimented men the same way they do women. If men hear a compliment from a woman and believe it genuine then they're walking on clouds for the rest of the day.

[@Cespar997]

The meaning is literally flipped backwards... and its because most people who think that would be misogynistic are backwards.

[@Valehass]

If you go back and watch him he barely smiles at all and never laughs. People like him are they thing they claim to be fighting, he is hateful, he is miserable, he wants everyone to be like him, to remove joy and beauty from the world. Its why post modernist art looks like a drunk threw up on the pavement.

[@roedhunt]

What's worse is when a woman says it's misogynistic as if she is speaking for the entire female world. She is NOT! I'd rather get a compliment either by a look of appreciation or words from a man than a fake "you're so pretty!" affirmation from another woman.

[@deepwinter4263]

As soon as I heard Earnest speak, I knew he was way, way, WAY out of his league with Drinker and Nerdrotic in the room. 🤣

[@matthewparker6202]

Even before that, when he rolled his eyes three to five times within several minutes

[@SkySweeperSyn]

Any time anything involving physical attraction came up he rolled his eyes. Dude is such a piece of tissue paper.

[@joshjones9749]

Grown men have NO business rolling their eyes like some middle school girl.

[@javiarcamaro7178]

Just look at his face when they were all talking about beautiful natural female bodies and beauty. Saying how much they love it is apperently misogynistic 😂

[@joshjones9749]

@javiarcamaro7178 While the actual woman on the panel is unbothered lol this is what things have come to..

[@LeoXtheArtist]

Thank you. Disney has made too many sequels and oversaturated the market with 30 MCU films, 5 Star Wars Films, nearly 10 Star Wars TV shows. People want something original.
